            it’s not even the “orcs” thing that shocked me. it was how immediately they switched, like someone had sent out an update to their firmware.

            there was no confused period where they tried various slurs until they settled on orcs. just orcing, 0-100, from day one.

              like someone had sent out an update to their firmware.

              It’s not an update to their firmware, just an already existing feature you had yet to see.

      Overall, we rate Radio Free Asia as Left-Center Biased based on story selection and editorial positions that slightly favor the left. We also rate them High for factual reporting due to proper sourcing and a clean fact-check record. (11/28/2016) (Updated D. Van Zandt 06/18/2024)
